Italy is a rich country in every way, from the staggering collection of precious art to the fertile soil producing vineyards of grapes and groves of olives. Italians believe in the concept of La Dolce Vita. Directly translated, the phrase means “the sweet life.” The figurative meaning is far more complex.
